It did not work on the past political forum. Eventually some were kicked out. But they just kept coming back with new identities.
The bigger advantage on the past forum was the option to use the ignore option.
That actually made it tolerable.
An alternative to everybody being guest? How about a specific user ID just for the political forum, allowing us to make use of all the TOTV features? One example.
